Guest access:
You'll have access to the entire property except for the upstairs & inside of garage.
Our house was built in 1926, and while we've done a lot to make it feel homey, comfortable, and beautiful, it still retains some of its original quirks.
As you explore the house, you may notice that the floors and doors can be a bit squeaky, adding a touch of nostalgia to your stay. The bathroom, while functional, is on the smaller side. Several of the windows in the sunroom and porch are painted shut, but we have provided additional options such as add-in screens or dowels to prop open the ones that are accessible. Additionally, fans are available in each bedroom to ensure your comfort on warmer days.
The washer and dryer are located in our semi-unfinished Michigan basement. Please keep in mind that the stairs leading to the basement are typical of older homes, so we kindly advise using them with a little extra caution.
While our home has its imperfections, we believe they contribute to its unique charm. We hope you appreciate the character and history it brings, and that you have a wonderful time experiencing its timeless appeal.

Summary: My family and I loved everything about our stay here: the tasteful decor, the walkability to trails and restaurants, and the overall peacefulness. We had a great time visiting the Sleeping Bear Dunes and this was a perfect stop on our way from Chicago to Mackinac Island. We will definitely be back!

Summary: The property is gorgeous and the owners were very communicative and friendly. My only suggestion for improvement would be to make the beds feel as comfortable as they look in the pictures, which they don't currently. But regardless, I'd definitely recommend this home to a friend and I may well book it again at some future date.

Summary: Northern Arches is a wonderfully restful and beautifully restored home! Northern Arches is a spotless, calming property with a carefully curated interior—you won’t find the owner’s leftover furniture here. Each piece has clearly been selected for a cohesive design in a soothing color scheme: a detail that is very important for us (an architect and interior designer). I just can’t rest in cluttered, disorganized interiors! The owners didn’t waste time adding useless details, but instead they seem to have committed their time to selecting the highest quality items for this house—from super comfortable beds to the most delicious coffee machine (Nespresso!). Kory and Mary were quickly responsive whenever we had a question or a need. We couldn’t feel more positive about this experience! We would stay here again next time we are in the area—highly recommended!
